Gridanian Poachers?

[RavieRaptor]

I wanted to make a character who's an ex poacher or current poacher keeper. I wanted to make her one that they would try to catch, but fail miserably due to her charms. Or if an ex poacher, a wanderer who is on a self exile and kinda fending for herself. I wanted some unique backstory or base that everyone isnt using. Any thoughts?

My character Nauta is also an Ex-Poacher and was a normal Poacher for a very long time until she was finally caught and defeated in battle. It served for quite a fun plot point and character development aspect to try and reintegrate her back into Gridania society, especially when Poachers have a really bad reputation and walking into Gridania as a known Poacher is basically walking yourself into your own jail cell. If you like the idea, definitely go for it! I've had fun with the backstory and my character's grown a lot since then.

I think the lore itself tried to portray a poacher a bit like that, which is Pawa Mujuuk (of the archer class quests). She is every bit of cocky, charismatic to a fault, and I suspect that Silvaire didn't exactly got tricked by just 'blinking away for a second' when she escaped. You might want to look into it for better ideas. 

 

You also have the lore around the Coeurlclaw clan, which can offer a lot of morally grey areas (the post moogle quest line portrays one of them and you learn that a lot of them didn't exactly ended up there by choice at first). Note: the Coeurlclaw are just the most notorious of poachers, but independent little bands like Mujuuk's group are non affiliated for example. There is also lesser poacher clans, like the one in the East Shroud: the Raptor poachers I think?
